The Crab Trap Saga Part III

This afternoon I went back to Bodega Bay to try to dislodge my crab trap.  I followed the advice to add more floats at low tide and tie them close.  I added 5 more floats for a total of 6; that ought to have some effect.  I was even concerned that if the trap releases then that much buoyancy might make it travel even more than it did before (at high tide it might even be off the bottom) so I ran a leaded line from the floats to the jetty.  I looped another line around a rock and tied it to the leaded line but I was concerned that it might not hold when the tide rises so I tied half of a concrete block to the line near the rock to hold the line down.  I plan to go back tomorrow to see what happens.  Too bad I’m not getting any crab during all this.

good luck getting it back, sounds like you are working safely for the prize
